The distance a falling object falls in some amount of time is

        D = 1/2  a  T²

If this flowerpot falls off a balcony on Earth, then 'a' is the
acceleration of gravity on Earth, and we can write

      85 m  =  1/2 (9.8 m/s²) T²

Divide each side by  4.9 m/s² :

      85/4.9  s²  =  T²

Square root each side:

      T  =  √(85/4.9)  seconds

          =      4.165 seconds .

A large pendulum with a 200-lb gold-plated bob 12 inches in diameter is on display in the lobby of the United Nations building.
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

2.4s

Explanation:

The length of the pendulum = 75ft

Diameter d = 12 inches

The time period of the pendulum is given as

T = 2pi(L/g)^1/2

Then the time it takes to move from displacement to equilibrium is given as:

t = T/4

= (Pi/2)*(L/g)^1/2

= pi/2 x [(75x0.3048)/9.81]^0.5

= 1.57x[22.86/9.81)^0.5

= 2.4s

2.4 seconds is the least amount of time that it would take.

A swimmer travels from the south end to the north end of a 30.0 m pool in 15.0 s and makes the return trip to the starting posit
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

Average velocity is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement of the trip

t is the time it takes for the trip to complete

In this problem, the net displacement of the swimmer is zero. In fact:

- First, he swims 30.0 m in the north direction

- Then, he travels back (-30.0 m) in the south direction, to the starting position

Since the final position is equal to the starting position, the displacement is zero:

d = 0

And therefore, the average velocity is also zero.

How do we know how much<br> gravitational force objects have?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

With a force of 1 Newton, an object weighing 100 grams is dragged towards the planet's center. On Earth, an item with a mass of 100 grams has a gravitational pull of only 1%, or about kg.
